Sexual harassment - Correctional Lieutenant Kentucky State Penitentiary Employee Review

It is a great jail

There are not any cons

Pay is good for the area.

To get a decent check, you are required to work 12 hour shifts 6 days a week. Even though it is said that staffing is up and overtime is going away. The pay is ok. Locality pay from Lyon county is going away. That is a five dollar an hour pay cut. Favoritism and sexual harassment from supervisory staff is on going. The hiring process is the easiest process of any correctional or law enforcement job. No aptitude test, no polygraph. Pass a background and drug screen, you are hired. Many people hired are not qualified to work in an all male maximum security prison, making an already hazardous job even more dangerous.
